Facing every day

While accepting God’s way

Traveling a long road

As God carries the load

Embracing what we find

Then finding peace of mind

Ignoring our naysayers

As we say our prayers

Embracing the lessons learned

Seeing the stripes we’ve earned

Learning to stand

As we hold God’s hand

Finding our God given purpose

Lying at the surface

Learning to love

Just like heaven above

Hanging on God’s word

Cause it’s all we’ve heard

Seeing the memories we’ll make

With every step we take

Seeing what’s in stone

Realizing we’re not alone

Starting a new chapter

Filled with joy and laughter

Getting much stronger

As our days get longer

Learning to smile

Even laugh a little while

Resting on solid ground

Sharing the joy we found

Learning how to live

Learning how to give

Learning what fills the soul

What makes life whole

Giving as good as we get

Letting go of regret

Feeling God’s power

Hour after hour

Changing our view

When we see what God can do

Looking straight ahead

Without an ounce of dread

Seeing what’s real

Too difficult to conceal

Seeing what we hold

Hearing the story being told

Finding a place

To run our race

Seeing what’s for us only

The journey
